LP Aspire LPA165 Traditional Claves

The LP Aspire LPA165 Traditional Claves are exceptionally resonant with variable sound qualities. Clave is the rhythmic pattern that forms the basis of Latin music. Clave is phrased in what is known as a 3/2 (forward clave) or 2/3 (reverse clave) feel. That is, three beats then two beats or two beats then three beats. The LP Aspire LPA165 Traditional Claves are used to play clave and are comprised of two sticks that are struck together to get a sharp, cracking sound.

What started as a simple string and pedal sales catalog has grown exponentially over the past thirty years. The early days were a time where catalogs didn't have much of a presence in the industry, but what began as a college dorm room operation grew rapidly. In 1986 we moved to a full product offering and 64-page catalog, which over the years has grown to 162 pages. Join the AMS family and get your free catalog now!
